About the role

You’ll work directly with enterprise customers to deliver custom, production-ready AI solutions that solve real-world problems.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with enterprise customers to scope and implement AI Agent use cases across complex workflows
  • Integrate IFS Loops platform with customer systems
  • Tune agent behavior and logic to deliver measurable outcomes (e.g., lower costs, increase in efficiency, fewer errors)
  • Troubleshoot deployments and iterate quickly to ensure performance, accuracy, and user adoption
  • Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and Customer Success to feed customer insights into the roadmap
  • Document technical decisions and hand off stable deployments to customer engineering or support teams

Requirements

  • 2–5 years of experience in a software engineering, solutions engineering, or ML deployment role
  • Proficiency in Python and working knowledge of AI/ML frameworks (e.g. OpenAI, Hugging Face, LangChain, Pinecone, Weaviate, etc.)
  • Familiarity with building LLM applications, RAG systems, or conversational AI workflows
  • Experience integrating with enterprise systems via APIs or middleware (e.g. Salesforce, ServiceNow, SAP, Oracle)
  • Ability to translate business problems into technical solutions—and deliver them fast
  • Strong interpersonal skills; you’re just as comfortable on a whiteboard with a customer as you are in code
  • Bias toward action, ownership, and continuous learning in dynamic environments
